Manchester United is said to be planning to strengthen its defense during the summer transfer season.
According to Gianluigi Longari, a knowledgeable journalist, the Red Devils are interested in signing Pau Torres from Villarreal this summer.

He says that United is in the driver's seat when it comes to his logo. The Red Devils have not only shown a "serious curiosity" in the protector but have also begun "concrete negotiations" to sign him.
The 24-year-old is under contract with the La Liga team until 2024, with a transfer option worth about €65 million (£56 million).
According to Cadena SER and Sportitalia, United intends to sign him before the start of the European Championships this summer.
The Manchester Evening News reported last month that the highly regarded defender was involved in joining the Red Devils this season.

United, on the other hand, could face rivalry from Premier League rivals Manchester City, who are already searching for a new defender.
Manchester United defender Eric Bailly reportedly agreed to a new contract extension until 2024, but it seems Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is already looking for a new defender.
According to the Daily Mail, United's priority now seems to be finding a long-term companion for Harry Maguire.
While Bailly and Victor Lindelof will be able to contend for daily playing time, United is trying to add a top-tier center-back.
Marcos Rojo quit the club in February, Axel Tuanzebe's deal expires next summer, and Phil Jones may be released – United does not want to be in a position where injuries to one or two central defenders derail their season.
In other headlines, Everton is involved in signing Sergio Aguero from Manchester City.
